Poolside Organization

One of the things I am most excited about, in our new house, is our pool!!!

I can’t wait to have a pool because I know we will live in it on these hot summer days (it was 115 yesterday!). I still need to stock up on pool toys, and other pool stuff, but for now I have all the essentials ready for our first swimming guests.

The two things you need the most, when having people over to swim, are towels and snacks! Excited for our first swimming get-togethers I went out and got stocked up on both. I used my set of Lands’ End canvas totes to organize the snacks, and the laundry hamper makes the perfect place to toss wet towels when we are done with them.

I stocked up on white towels for the pool because they are easy to keep clean and you don’t have to worry about them fading in the sun.

Don’t you just love this swing? It’s one of my other favorite things about our new backyard. I see myself spending hours sitting here, swinging and talking to friends while we watch our kids swim and play.

We also do a lot of swimming on the go, such as swim lessons, trips to the water park, swimming at grandma’s, etc. For my on the go swim bag I used the small Lands’ End canvas tote and packed with all our swimming essentials.

Now the question is how would you use these amazing set of canvas totes from Lands’ End?

I would choose spruce/natural for my color and would use them to store toys neatly for when my grandchildren visit:
Dress-up clothes in the hamper, Books, Blocks/Legos, BabyDolls with accessories in separate monogrammed totes. Easy to access for play and easy to put away and look tidy in between visits.

Oh these are wonderful! I’d use one for pool things for sure. One for the library. One in the car for the essentials of Mom’s taxi–an extra towel, some snacks, wet wipes, tissues, a few dollars, etc. I like the Natural/True Navy.

natural/navy or natural/spruce….I’ve got a big one that my mother in law gave me about 15yrs ago. i still use it and they are SO durable! We live in FL now, so they would be put to excellent use going to the beach as well as for organizing on the back porch with pool stuff!

After going back and forth on the colors I narrowed it down to the dark green or the navy. After lots of thought, I close the navy/ natural color. This is a terrific giveaway. Thanks for the chance to win it!

Love this backyard. I have one of these bags and my daughter (colllege aged) has the smallest one. We love them. They are so versatile, and they still look as good as the day we got them – both gifts. Such great friends we have! 🙂

I love the natural colored totes! As a working mama who is also writing a dissertation and trying to keep up with home improvements projects I can think of a lot of uses for this awesome set. Dissertation notes, work tote, trips to the Farm Market, toy storage. The possibilities are endless!

I’d love to the red totes. They are versatile!! The possibilities are endless. My husband and I both agree that our next house has to have a pool. It’s way too hot here in Texas to not have one. Thanks for the great giveaway!!

I think I would have trouble choosing between natural/rich red and natural/dark chocolate. Both of them make me smile. We are nearing retirement and just put a contract on a house with a pool. Can’t wait!

My niece is getting married in September, and I’d love to give them as a wedding gift! While the natural color scheme is more versatile, I’d take the red — it’s more vibrant and fun. Thanks for the chance to win a quality gift!

Kewl & awesome giveaway! These would be perfect for my college daughter for storage in her dorm during the school year but would aid in the packing process by having things “grab and go”. I think of the colors listed, she would like the Spruce!

Redoing teenage daughter’s bedroom and get her organized. This set in Curry Lemon would be useful in many ways from laundry, art supplies, school stuff, closet items, etc. My minds racing with possibilities 🙂
